I just love ponchos!

I find them so comfortable to wear, and love the way they can jazz up plain everyday outfits. They are great over a strappy top or plain long sleeved T-shirt.

I used 1 200g cake of Wolltraum “She’s a Rainbow”, 760 metres of 4ply with a 4mm hook.

You could easily use any lightweight cotton yarn for this, or even a 4-ply acrylic.

This is a one size pattern, so you can adjust to make it larger or smaller, should you need to. The length from neckline to bottom edge is 25 inches/63.5cm.

The instructions are very simple and are in US terms.
